They had this story on my local news at noon yesterday. The news anchor said it is the first MOH awarded since Vietnam. I immediately got on the phone to their newsroom and told them that they were wrong!! Master Sergeant Gordon & Sergeant First Class Shughart were award the CMOH during Somalia (BlackHawk Down). The lady in the news room said "Ohhh I guess I should look that up than." :mad: :mad: I replied yeah it might be a good thing to know what you are talking about when it comes to the finest to every wear a uniform then I hung up the phone. Never did see if they made a correction.
